WWM is your chance to prospect Asian markets with a minimum of expenses.

CHINA

China now has approximately 21 million wine buyers online, making it the world’s largest and fastest-growing e-commerce market for wine, and the channel is becoming increasingly important for Chinese wine drinkers. Chinese drinkers are spending more on wine. The number is up by more than a quarter than 2014 (38m). China is now one of the EU’s top fi ve export markets.

SOUTH KOREA

Serving a population of over 50 million people with a high level of alcohol consumption and solid purchasing power, the South Korean market offers signifi cant potential for wine exporters. South Korea imports everything it consumes. Wine imports soared from 2002, particularly in the wake of the free trade agreement with Chile. Volumes then fell between 2008 and 2011 during the global economic crisis before beginning to climb again in 2011, stimulated by the recovery and the implementation of the free trade agreement between Korea and the European Union, which marked a major resurgence in wine sales. In 2014, wine imports reached a record high of €162 million, up 6% in value from 2013. The total volume of imports amounted to 33.1 million litres, up 1.7% (USDA-FAS, 2015).

VIETNAM

In Asia, Vietnam is one of the non-wine producing emerging markets, alongside India, Malaysia and Thailand, that are gradually developing their own wine industries: though wine is still a relatively new product, its consumption is growing year on year, reaching 600 million litres in 2014 which equates to 6.5 litres per capita. The number of wine drinkers has risen steadily and signifi cantly since the early 2000s, gaining market share from other more traditional alcoholic beverages. Wines recorded total volume growth of 6% in 2013, and 11% in the case of red wine (Euromonitor, 2014), a trend subsequently confi rmed by a 10% increase in 2014 within a highly competitive marketplace. With a population of more than 92.3 million in 2015, Vietnam is a high potential future market for wine exporters.
